8.1 Microwave

Information about operation General:
• After you deactivate the appliance, let the food stand for some minutes.
Refer to the microwave cooking tables: standing time.
• Remove the aluminium foil packaging, metal containers, etc. before you prepare the food.
Cooking:
www.aeg.com14
• If possible, cook food covered with material suitable for use in the microwave. Only cook food without a cover if you want to keep a crust.
• Do not overcook the dishes by setting the power and time too high. The food can dry out, burn or catch fire in some places.
• Do not use the appliance to cook eggs in their shells and snails, because they can burst. With fried eggs, pierce the yolks first.
• Prick food with "skin" or "peel", such as potatoes, tomatoes, sausages, with a fork several times before cooking so that the food does not burst.
• For chilled or frozen food, set a longer cooking time.
• Dishes which contain sauce must be stirred from time to time.
• Vegetables that have a firm structure, such as carrots, peas or cauliflower, must be cooked in water.
• Turn larger pieces after half the cooking time.
• If possible, cut vegetables into similar­sized pieces.
• Use flat, wide dishes.
• Do not use cookware made of porcelain, ceramic or earthenware with small holes, e. g. on handles or unglazed bottoms. Moisture going into the holes can cause the cookware to crack when it is heated.
Defrosting meat, poultry, fish:
• Put the frozen, unwrapped food on a small upturned plate with a container below it, or on a defrosting rack or
plastic sieve so that the defrosting liquid can run off.
• Turn the food after half the defrosting time. If possible, divide and then remove the pieces that have started to defrost.
Defrosting butter, portions of gateau, quark:
• Do not fully defrost in the appliance, but let them defrost at room temperature. This gives a more even result. Fully remove all metal or aluminium packaging or parts before defrosting.
Defrosting fruit, vegetables:
• Do not fully defrost fruit and vegetables, which are to be further prepared while raw, in the appliance. Let them defrost at room temperature.
• You can use a higher microwave power to cook fruit and vegetables without defrosting them first.
Ready meals:
• Ready meals in metal packaging or plastic trays with metal covers can only be defrosted or heated in the microwave if they are expressively designated as suitable for use in the microwave.
• You must follow the manufacturer's instructions printed on the packaging (e. g. remove the metal cover and pierce the plastic film).
